Then I shall also get to the point.

A poll is relatively simple, you ask one or more questions via text, radio button etc., you read the answer, store it somewhere (file or database), and, when requested, you read it all in and display the results.

You must have thought about how to store and display the results before you plan about setting up a poll. You cannot do that simply by using HTML or JavaScript, because these languages do not have file access or db access capabilities. So you need to choose a server language in order to to store and retrieve the data and to display it.

So your question is not quite to the point. You will have to tell us first the server language, and the file or db system that you are going to use.

When it is 0, the poll is "active" and can be voted...
